The only potential payback is from the "over-rated" chants during our 17-10 win last year.

Mendenhall is in the top 5 in a lot of NCAA rushing catagories. I think they are a better running team than Wiscy this year. Look at the numbers. The badgers had some success running the ball, they just got away from it too early. Talent wise, this Illini team is a lot better than wiscy also. Better playmakers all around. Plus, the Bucks defense has to account for juice pulling it down and running. The last time they faced a scrambling QB (WASHINGTON GAME) he torched them for 100+. Love the confidence guys but don't see the Bucks winning this one by 3 scores unless they shut down the run early and turn Juice and the Illini offense into a 1-dimensional threat.

Just as it was last year.
But then again the conspiracy theories about last year's Illinois game are still floating around.

The Buckeyes will be highly motivated for this one. They've come too far to look past a good Illini team to the Mchgn game.

I think so too! And they don't have Barry's formula for winning in the Shoe!
And we won't be flat like Saturday. |
